Description


...but not kissing cousins, in real life the smaller dinosaur would have had to flee for its life if they met! This is an introduction to some facts that not that many people have heard, and since I found them fascinating I thought I would spread them around. Tyrannosaurus Rex was not just the most dangerous and most common large predator in its ecosystem, it was a member of a closely related family of dinosaurs. As the T. Rex was the first to be discovered that family was named the Tyrannosaurids, or Tyrannosauridae. And here we have an illustration of one alongside the T. Rex, the Bistahieversor Sealeyi, sometimes known as the "Bisti beast" or the "Bistahi beast". It was much rarer than T. Rex but their range overlapped somewhat, so they would have met even though it would probably not happen often. Weight estimates for mature adults range from two to three and a half metric tons, so although smaller than a T. Rex it was still a formidable beast. Because of its lighter build it was likely a lot faster than T. Rex, so it would not have fallen victim to its bigger relative very often in spite of the size disadvantage. Rendered in Blender 4.0.2. The path to Blender for the T. Rex was simply to export from DAZ Studio (using the Diffeomorphic DAZ Studio export script) to disk and then import into Blender (using the Diffeomorphic import plug-in for Blender). The Bistahieversor is a Poser model, so it was loaded into DAZ Studio, converted to a "General Weight Mapped" format and then passed to Blender through the same route as the T. Rex. The Bistahieversor is one of Dinoraul's superb Poser models, here in the marketplace and currently on sale, so take a look before it returns to its normal price.

Those were some magnificent beasts, and I'm really loving your renders - and the information - it's fascinating. Well done!

I hope to get to a point someday where I can start exploring Blender a bit. Hopefully it won't make my brain explode. I've been watching Chris Cox's Twitch streams with him moving stuff back and forth with DAZ and Blender, and it just blows my mind. Your work with these creatures has the same effect. Keep 'em coming!

Blender is mighty nowadays, and is used by special effects companies on major movies; Real by Fake, a Canadian SFX studio, has used Blender on some of the Marvel movies they have worked on. It's great software, and although not easy to learn it is worth the effort!

I am glad you're enjoying these, it's giving something back for all the entertainment you've provided me with in recent years.
